Google’s Secrets to Dominating Your Mobile App Advertising

with Googler Max Ade

Over the last 5 years, mobile apps have dramatically changed the way we go about our day-to-day lives. Car rides across town at 3 in the morning can be ordered in seconds. True love can be found by swiping left and right. And delicious cheesy pizza can be ordered straight to your door by tapping a single button (A SINGLE BUTTON!!).

The mobile app revolution has also dramatically impacted the way businesses think about engaging their audience and capturing new users.
